Chrome extension privacy policy

Deze inhoud is nog niet vertaald.

This page is the privacy policy for the drawtonomy for GitHub Chrome extension. Last updated: 2026-08-02.

For what the extension does and how to use it, see Preview OpenSCENARIO files on GitHub. The extension is published on the Chrome Web Store.

The extension adds an inline preview for OpenSCENARIO (.xosc) driving-scenario files to github.com pages, rendered by the drawtonomy web app.

None. The extension has no analytics, no remote logging, no background service worker, and no server of its own. It never transmits browsing history, file contents, or any personal data to the extension author or to any third party.

  • Your two settings (app base URL and auto-preview toggle) in chrome.storage.sync.
  • The preview panel height in chrome.storage.local.

Both stay inside your browser (and your Chrome profile sync, if you have Chrome sync enabled). Nothing else is persisted.

All requests originate from your browser and only happen on GitHub pages where the extension is active:

  • api.github.com — one unauthenticated Git Trees request per repository, to find .xosc files in subfolders so folder rows can show a preview button and a count.
  • https://www.drawtonomy.com (or the base URL you configure) — loaded in an iframe when you open a preview. The embedded drawtonomy app then fetches the scenario and its road network from raw.githubusercontent.com, exactly as if you had opened the same link in a browser tab.

The extension itself sends no other requests. Opening a preview is equivalent to visiting drawtonomy.com in a tab; what the web app does (and does not do) with data is documented in Data flow and privacy.
